The Transformation of environments surrounding human which called (place), formed an intermediate compresser in forming awareness pictures, human knowledge, culture and thought features, and changing the systems and contexts of human societies, which led to a change the rhythm of life as a whole. So according to that the place will be encodes according to these data for psychological connotations, lead to human sense of harmony with the place in different manner format, here the search problem lies when trying to detect how Iraqi artist deliberating with the place concept, wondering how to investing place in the contemporary Iraqi drawing within its reference dimension, and showing mechanisms from comparative study for the works of two artists, who formed the place element a radical axis in their works, how are each of the artist Nuri al-Rawi, and the artist Saad al-Tai. And the place within the data human culture and thought, represents civilizational reference and national privacy, and the art dimension is a part of data of human culture and thought. So it carries a great mutants for the place. Hence the importance of research comes to be as a new dimension on the level of critical analysis to detect the references and attributes of this concept in the identity of Iraqi art. So the search aims: to detect referential dimension of place in the Iraqi drawing among contemporary contexts, and showing it in the work of artists Nuri al-Rawi and Saad al-Tai.
Based on the correlation of both - knowledge and place, for that each of this knowledge founded its theories about the concept of place, both according to its data and orientations, as the problem of the place is from philosophical problems which be placed within the circle of simple search even to be impossible of the same place, but the concept of the place was more fortunate in the field of philosophical studies in general, and monetary and literary and artistic especially, so had to stand starting from the concept of the place, and the theory of place in art and literature from the perspective of aesthetic and semantic, of where correlation between place and time for literary space with creativity space. On this basis, many descriptions developed for the place types, correlated with the most important concepts within the dialectic forming place within the field of fine arts, which are include: real place, symbolic place, assumption place, and imagined place. And then shed light on the mechanisms represent the place in trends of modern art (global and Iraqi), which varied from symbolic realistic representation for inherited significances reaching to absent the place or neglect its recipes and breakdown from domination imposed by its selected, or attempt to openness to the space of place in the work, which skips the boundaries of time and history.
After analyzing the samples that have been chosen are intentional, came researcher outcome of the most important: that the place manifestation different levels of expression at each of the artist Al-Rawi and artist Al-Tai, the Rawi was often clings to supposed place, while Tai moved from supposed place to symbolic place to the imagined place, the Al-Rawi often transcend on the realistic to place and transmit them to places with ideal characteristics, while Al-Tai transmitting recipes of example on the landscape seems to be linked to reality. And the place for Rawi reflects oftenly an externally part (village), but for Tai reflecting external parts and internal (special and private). The place devoid of all that is emotive in Al-Rawi, so its place are rapting meditating, while Al-Tai places are more emotive and movement from Al-Rawi places. In addition to the general results included the concept of place and its relationship with characteristics of the formation of the artwork.
It has increasingly been recognised that the future developments in geospatial data handling will centre on geospatial data on the web: Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). The evaluation of VGI data quality, including positional and shape similarity, has become a recurrent subject in the scientific literature in the last ten years. The OpenStreetMap (OSM) project is the most popular one of the leading platforms of VGI datasets. It is an online geospatial database to produce and supply free editable geospatial datasets for a worldwide. The goal of this paper is to present a comprehensive overview of the quality assurance of OSM data. In addition, the credibility of open source geospatial data is discussed, highlighting the diff

A new modified differential evolution algorithm DE-BEA, is proposed to improve the reliability of the standard DE/current-to-rand/1/bin by implementing a new mutation scheme inspired by the bacterial evolutionary algorithm (BEA). The crossover and the selection schemes of the DE method are also modified to fit the new DE-BEA mechanism. The new scheme diversifies the population by applying to all the individuals a segment based scheme that generates multiple copies (clones) from each individual one-by-one and applies the BEA segment-wise mechanism. These new steps are embedded in the DE/current-to-rand/bin scheme. The performance of the new algorithm has been compared with several DE variants over eighteen benchmark functions including sever

An electrolytic process for the removal of Zn(II) from aqueous solution using a parallel amalgamated copper screens cathode operated in the flow through mode is proposed. The current-potential curves recorded at a rotating amalgamated copper disc electrode were used to determine diffusion coefficient of Zn(II). The performance of electrolytic reactor was investigated by using different flow rates at initial zinc ion concentration(48 mg/L). Taking into account the residential Zn(II) concentration, the best results were obtained for cathode potential of (-1.35 V vs. SCE) at flow rate (320 L/h). Zinc ion concentration was found to decrease from 48 mg/L to 1 mg/L during 120 min. of electrolysis. The experimental data are well correlate

The pure ZnS and ZnS-Gr nanocomposite have been prepared
successfully by a novel method using chemical co-precipitation. Also
conductive polymer PPy nanotubes and ZnS-PPy nanocomposite
have been synthesized successfully by chemical route. The effect of
graphene on the characterization of ZnS has been investigated. X-ray
diffraction (XRD) study confirmed the formation of cubic and
hexagonal structure of ZnS-Gr. Dc-conductivity proves that ZnS and
ZnS-Gr have semiconductor behavior. The SEM proved that
formation of PPy nanotubes and the Gr nanosheet. The sensing
properties of ZnS-PPy/ZnS-Gr for NO2 gas was investigated as a
function of operating temperature and time under optimal condition.

Binary mixtures of three heavy oil-stocks had been subjected to density measurments. The data had been aquired on the volumetric behaviour of these systems. The heavy oil-stocks used were of good varity, namely 40 stock , 60 stock, and 150 stock, 40 stock is the lightest one with the API gravity 33.7 while 60 stock is middle type and 150 stock is heavy one, with API gravity 27.7 and 23.8 respectively. Stocks with Kerosene or Xylene for non-ideal mixtures for which excess volume can be positive or negative. Mixture of heavy-oil stocks with paraffinic spike (Kerosene) show negative excess volume. While, aromatic rings results a lower positive excess volume, as shown in Xylene when blending with 40 stock and 60 stock but a negati

The goal of this work is to employ the structure of the Modified Elman Neural Network (MENN) model into the NARMA-L2 structure instead of Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) model in order to construct a new hybrid neural structure that can be used as an identifier model and a nonlinear controller for the SISO linear or nonlinear systems. Two learning algorithms are used to adjust the parameters weight of the hybrid neural structure with its serial-parallel configuration; the first one is supervised learning algorithm based Back Propagation Algorithm (BPA) and the second one is an intelligent algorithm n

In this work, strains and dynamic crack growth were studied and analyzed in thin flat plate with a surface crack at the center, subjected to cycling low velocity impact loading for two types of aluminum plates (2024, 6061). Experimental and numerical methods were implemented to achieve this research. Numerical analysis using program (ANSYS11-APDL) based on finite element method used to analysis the strains with respect to time at crack tip and then find the velocity of the crack growth under cycling impact loading. In the experimental work, a rig was designed and manufactured to applying the cycling impact loading on the cracked specimens. The grid points was screened in front of the crack tip to measure the elastic-plas
